1916 – The Long Revolution - Edited by Gabriel Doherty & Dermot Keogh

1916 – The Long Revolution seeks to interpret the events of Easter Week 1916 as the central defining event of a ‘long revolution’ in Irish history. Among the topics discussed are the European and American contexts for the Rising, the role of the IRB in its planning, the reaction of the Catholic Church to the event, the debate surrounding the morality of the Rising, and the commemoration of the event in both 1966 and 2006.
